Weasel words

[edit]

At the end of the article, it says "There were calls for Elon Musk to ban West from X. They said: 'We can’t stop a deranged bigot from spewing hate-filled, ignorant bile… but we CAN stop giving him a megaphone, Mr Musk.'" My question is who said this specifically. A quick Google search looks like it was David Zimmerman, should probably include that. I don't know whether I'm allowed to directly edit the article...

NPOV issues

[edit]

I note the following issues with this article as it is being archived:

  • The stated reason for West’s ban (“because he said ‘Heil Hitler’…”) is presented in wikivoice, not attributed to Twitch or another source.
  • The claim the video “generated millions of views” is unattributed.
  • The description of Nick Fuentes as a “known racist” is evaluative language without attribution.

Per WN:NPOV, such analysis or evaluative content should be attributed to a qualified source rather than presented in the project’s voice.Michael.C.Wright (Talk/Reviewer) 18:46, 18 September 2025 (UTC)Reply
